Makeup temporarily conceals dark spots, but doesn’t resolve the problem. Laneige White Plus Renew Original Essence_EX helps you look on the bright side, 24/7.

Dark spots pop up on the skin’s surface, but they’re actually created in the deep est layer of the epidermis. They occur when too much melanin is produced in response to UV exposure, hormonal changes, ageing, or even picking your pimples. The melanin travels up to the skin’s surface, and hey presto, hyperpigmentation appears.

You might pile on concealer and foundation to hide the dark spots, but when your makeup comes off, the problem is st ill there. And you don’t always want to plaster yourself in thick foundation just to f eel confident enough to leave the ho use.

The solution is to treat the issue a t the root, in the deep er layers of your skin. However, this is difficult to do, and many products that aim to achieve it don’t seem to work at all, give only temporary results, or are harsh and drying.

To deal with all these challenges, Laneige has reformulated its award-winning brightening essence to create the improved White Plus Renew Original Essence_EX. It’s designed to brighten skin from the in side, cell by cell, and provide deep hydration too. Here’s what you need to know.

Brightening and hydrating technology: Advanced Melacrusher

Inspired by glutathione or “water glow” injections said to give you brighter skin, this improved technology fills melanin cells with water to make them appear translucent, thereby brightening the skin. It also promises to inhibit the formation of new melanin while deeply hydrating your skin, so you can worry less about dryness as well as recurring spots and blemishes.
